Scooter lied - Keith Olbermann Countdown Pt. 1 of 2

Valerie Wilson's husband, John Wilson, was a Bush administration dissenter. There is reason to believe that Valerie Wilson's identity as a CIA agent was exposed as a retailiation from the Bush Administration against John Wilson, and Scooter Libby was the agent of the Administration to expose Valerie Wilson. Scooter Libby was Dick Cheney's national security adviser. Scooter claims that he first learned of Valerie from Tim Russert, newsanchor for NBC's Meet the Press, but of course, in typical Bush Administration style, he lied, and Olbermann lists the sources who claim to have heard Libby blab about Valerie Wilson's identity long before Libby met with Tim Russert.

Does anybody know why the PolticsTV/Firedoglake daily reports on the Libby trial were taken off Youtube? They don't seem to violate any terms of use that I can think of.

[suni2h]

I'd venture to guess that the owner of those videos may have violated some copyright infringement and had their entire channel shutdown, thereby resulting in some innocent casualties such as postings that did not violate copyright issues.

Libby was pardoned as part of the deal ... dumbya seeks to pardon HIMSELF now.

What part of the constitution has our *leader* NOT wiped his arse with?

ARGH!!!!

I am PROUD to be an AMERICAN, I will be prouder still when the criminal and theif is led off in handcuffs to face the rest of his life behind bars.

Because we had a prosecutor who wanted to make a name for himself and settle an old score. He was suppose to be investigating the leak to Novak. When Richard Armitage confesses, the investigation should have stopped.

[vuducile]

Uh..if there was no crime, why was there a need to commute the sentence in the first place?

[tigerone1970]

Provide proof, Ann Coulter.

[4951WEDDEL]

Liberals are ALWAYS angry. There is no reason to be mad. Bush commuted the prison time for Libby. There was no pardon, no leak, and no crime.

namecaller, this country isn't yours its ours. try sharing once in a while. the whole argument boils down to this: just because you can doesn't mean you should. pardoning your friends is dirty, no matter who you are. rather than being angry at those who speak out against the BS, why not try being angry at its originator? be an american first, party mouthpiece second. our brothers and sisters are dying. that should make you angry.

And, have you noticed that--despite how virulent their rhetoric has become--they are not posting as often or in as many venues these days? Not feeling quite as sure of themselves, I would wager...

[chervilant]

Aw, the poor wee mannie. You have a penchant for engaging in battles of wit completely unarmed. I have encountered you before, and left you mewling in the dirt then, as now. As before, if you're not outraged by the multitudinous crimes of the Bush administration, YOU ARE NOT PAYING ATTENTION!

[Strongtuit]

What part of the Constitution of the United States of America don't you understand, bedwetter?

It specifically authorizes the President of the United States of America the POWER to pardon anyone, anytime, anywhere, as HE SEE FITS.

 You got a problem with it, Get the hell out of my country and find somewhere you like better.

[chervilant]

Waaaaaaaaaah! Pulling Clinton's crap out of your ass to excuse Bush's failings is infantile! Clinton's actions were indefensible then, Bush's actions are indefensible NOW. If you REALLY care about our country, you'll start looking for solutions instead of reverting to grade school name-calling antics.
